OnePlus shows Buds Z: New True Wireless In-Ears for 59 euros

In addition to the launch of the OnePlus 8T, the smartphone manufacturer OnePlus also has a new headphone in the bag: Welcome OnePlus Buds Z!
After the release of the Buds (review) just a few months ago, OnePlus is unusually quick to follow suit and offers another true wireless model in the form of the Buds Z.
This comes as an in-ear, which should ensure a better fit and thus sound than the Buds with their EarBuds design.
With 10 mm drivers, Dolby Atmos support, and a bass boost function, the four-gram EarBuds will provide you with a rich sound that will always accompany you during sports activities thanks to IP55 certification. Two built-in microphones are also supposed to ensure clear speech intelligibility.
The Buds Z connect to your devices via Bluetooth 5.0. The manufacturer is again silent about the codec, so it can be assumed that this model also works with SBC and AAC. About five hours of runtime (for pure music playback – three hours when only talking on the phone) should be possible with one charge, the charging case can supply another 15 hours of power thanks to a capacity of 450 mAh. Thanks to “Fast Charge”, a charge of 10 minutes is enough to listen to music for three hours.
The headphones can be operated via a touch interface, Google Assistant and an auto-pause function are also among the features.
